Ćevapi Meatball Sliders
Ćevapi Meatball Sliders
This dish takes its inspiration from a popular Serbian street food. Cevapi (pronounced Ch-Ay-Vah-Pea) is a minced meat patty consisting of pork, beef, and lamb with diced onions, garlic, and paprika. In the Serbian capital of Belgrade, you’ll see countless vendors selling these in a variety of presentations. Here, I’ve updated the classic meatball slider we all know and love, and added a Balkan twist.
